Mr. Laird's continued success with his grazing occultations, Mri Dickinson leased a twelve-inch telescope to the school. Are ranging a contest for :1 fantastic prize, Mr. Laird obtained a plan for the construction of an observatory for about $200. The Board of Trustees upset everything by allotting $5000. A Mathematics Club was formed under the wing of Mr. Deane. Even 2: Stamp Club was formed. Gary Pierce thought a Model Car Club would be a good idea, but . . . The Pep Club left for Brown. The publications got under way again this year with Dick Schwab editing the Archive, and Clark Beim-Esche editing both the Scroll and the Scribe. It seems they considered trading jobs for a while until Mr. Eberhard read the first Year in Review. The Strollit determined plans to get every issue out on time were abandoned by those determined reporters who planned that they wouldn't. The Student Council of 1967 seemed to be one of the most active and progressive in many years. Assembly speakers of the first degree were provided. Mr. Ransohoff, representing the poverty program of Cin- cinnati, touched off a student controversy which rocked the school for several days. Both John J. Gilligan and Robert A. Taft, Jr., Who himself attended Country Day, addressed the school in the Council-spon- sored assemblies and thus gave the students a close look at the policies and tactics of two men engaged in one of the hottest congressional races in the nation.

The varsity football team had a sorrowful yet hard-fought year, and Greg Rasmussen, although injured early in the season, won state-wide acclaim for his ability on the line, There was one bright note on the gridiron - the Middle School varsity squad went through an undefeated season. Clubs seemed to be the thing this year, and in the beginning weeks, organizations already established and newly born came to life. The Chess Club returned again this year with an expanded membership and continued winning matches. The De- bating Club held debates on Open Housing and Civil Service Jim Pool drew a full house to hear his impassioned defense of the former. Rumors from the Senior Shack were that N ate Laffoon drew a couple too, but not the same kind. The Club even decided to debate the hard-core team of Dohertyhs this year.
